I finally prettied up my table of contents! I think that this Web site accurately summarizes my personality and interests as a whole now, and expresses this on the main page. I hope that people who meander their way on to this site can glimpse at it and at once have an understanding of the content expected to be seen on here.
The navigation sidebar on the left is about to be ravamped, too.
If you check the site frequently, you might catch it gradually filling out. XD
THINGS I NEED TO POST ABOUT SOON:
The bloomers I finished sewing like a week ago. XD
This one art work I finished several days ago and haven’t posted here yet even though it’s on DA and I promised myself I would update this site simultaneously with any art I posts on DA or Tumblr ARGH.
Ahhhh I am not updating this blog nearly as much as I’d like too! >A<
SO BASICALLY here are the things I’m working on now:
Reworking the layout of the Table of Contents on the home page. It will have lots of pictures and look pretty instead of just boringly listing all of the categories I post in.
Posting all of my Boutique products, making graphics for them, making sure the shopping cart scripts all work… These are all things that are happening. Right now, behind the scenes. Every day.
Some little art work doodles that I haven’t quite posted on the Portfolio page yet (like I’ve said multiple times before, follow me on DA or Tumblr for real-time updates, ’cause I post stuff there the moment I finish it).
Paid work (!!), providing art work and graphics for an RPG by Legion Games.
So, sorry for not having more regular comics and updates. ‘Tis truly my own fault for putting so many lofty goals on my plate at the same time. XD
Would you like to talk about E3? I’d like to talk about E3. LET’S TALK ABOUT E3.
All kinds of cool stuff. Cool, expensive stuff. Stuff that I’ll be admiring from afar and probably not actually have in my possession until like two years after everyone else. ;-;
I’m just gonna quickly go over a few of the games I’m interested in from this year’s E3 lineup. You won’t find extensive game coverage on this blog. If you want WiiU specs and speculations (heh!), you have a bamillion other blogs to check out. I’m going to talk about the pretty games with the cute main characters that grow flowers and make friends with monsters.
Yeah, games like Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny. I was really, really surprised that Natsume tackled this one, since Rune Factory Frontier was handled by XSeed. Natsume seems especially emboldened lately, what with their amazing localization jobs on Rune Factory 3 and Lufia. I think that Tides of Destiny is gonna be cooool. X3
What made it so surprising that Tides of Destiny was shown off at this year’s E3 was that Natsume had already announced they were going to showcase Harvest Moon: The Tale of Two Towns. HARVEST MOON ADORABLENESS OVERDOSE.
Just look at those cuuuuute animals. <3 The scenery in this game is just spectacular.
Also, Kid Icarus Uprising. I… am a big fan of Pit. That’s all I can say on the matter at this time. I probably won’t get a 3DS any time soon, but that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate how cool this game looks.
I am so happy to have made friends with Princess Peachie. n_n She is such a total cutie! I’ve been making more and more friends on DA recently (I mean, like, within the past month). I don’t know why I didn’t start braving up and start communicating with more people before this. ;-; I think my shyness was really holding me back from making friendships, but I’ve gotten much better and I’m very happy now. <3
SO THIS PICTURE is a birthday present for her and also an entry for her Princess Peachie mascot-drawing contest. n_n
I didn’t let myself draw Peachie herself until I finished the background first. >3< Because I always slack off on backgrounds. So, this time I did the background before anything else, to keep me from being lazy and making it boring. XD The flowers are peach blossoms. <3
I WANT TO DRAW MORE OF MY FRIENDS but omg I am so busy working on my boutique. oAo Please do not think of this submission as me showing favoritism for Peachie, omg I love all of you. ;__; I promise to draw more of my friends in the future. <3 Probably for their birthdays, too. XD <3
Happy birthday, Ruth. :3

I did some (minimal) dessert making this past Memorial Day weekend. 😀 Want to see?
Cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts! HOW HAVE I GONE THIS LONG WITHOUT MAKING CHEESECAKE BEFORE?
I don’t even know! So I decided to remedy that. c:
CHEESECAKE IN CUPCAKE FORM. O_O I bet you didn’t see that one coming. I didn’t, until I brought the supplies home and saw a picture of them on the box.
And how couldn’t I want to combine two of my most favoritest things in the universe – cupcakes and cheesecake?
So I did. It’s quite tasty! CHOMP.
To make them, you just press the graham crust into the bottom of the cupcake liners…
…and then spoon the cheesecake on top…
And refrigerate, and done! If you only use one pan, the cheesecake part will be fuller! I think I’ll only use one pan the next time I make these, since spreading it out between two pans made them kind of tiny. c:
They would be awesome with some strawberries spooned on top. <3
EXCITEMENT. Just a couple of days ago, I made my first Lolita purchase. I’ve been admiring the fashion for definitely more than a year now, probably closer to two years.
There are a lot of reasons why I didn’t dive into it right after learning of its existence, and the expense is a big one. But I’ve been really smart with my money these past two years and, by golly, I deserve a little treat for myself! I’ve had a lot of time to put research into this fashion and the subculture surrounding it, and I am more than ready to embrace the princessly lifestyle for myself!
I know Dear Celine isn’t among the most coveted brands out there, but when I browse through their selection of available items, I am blindingly infatuated with nearly every one of them.
All of their original designs are SO FRILLY!!
The pink dress on the left, titled Spring Sweet Candy Check, is what I purchased. It is just the right amount of elegant and cute.
This is my princess dress.
It is being manufactured right now to fit my exact measurements. <3
I also purchased socks and an adorable pair of shoes! I can’t wait until I receive them so I can show them off to you! X3
That may not be for about a month, though, due to the amount of time required to manufacture a custom-sized garment. Plus, I ordered using a slower shipping method, to save just a little bit of money. <3
I’ll be making my own bloomers and petticoat! The bloomers are actually almost done – I will probably finish them today! Maybe some burst of productivity will happen and I’ll get the petticoat down, too!
Oh! I almost forgot. I made this gif out sheer excitement the other day. XD
Hahaha, that’s not even a very good representation of the dress. XD And yes, I am totally aware that I am completely ridiculous. I just can’t help myself~ I’m so looking forward to having my princess dress!
